Nov 4, 2007 22oz bottle, courtesy of argo0. Thanks, Aaron! Pours a hazy, honey-yellow color; thin white head with patchy lacing. Simple sugar and some citrus bitterness in the aroma; some overripe yellow fruit. Sticky sugar and a light sprinkling of rough citrus hops in a medium mouthfeel: one-dimensional sugar and a slight doughy note; not much here. Medium, sugar and rough citrus in the finish; unremarkable.

Oct 25, 2007 22 oz bottle. Poured a clear medium orange color. Head was thin, white, and didn’t leave much lace behind. Aroma was of husky grain, grassy hops, alcohol, a dash of soy, and a hint of dog food. Slightly sweet with mild hop bitterness that peaked toward the end. Tasted predominantly of fall leaves and husky grain. Eh.

Oct 22, 2007 Pours a transparent bright bronze with a wispy froth of white head. Aroma of slightly toasty sugary pale malt and some earthy noble hops. Starts with a mild toasty pale malty sweetness and a smooth slightly bittersweet finish. A pretty decent, and blanced brew.

Oct 21, 2007 Bomber. Hazy straw color, thin white head, corn and grass on the nose. It’s got the same corn flavor as the nose indicates, and not necessarily in a bad way. Quite refreshing. I’d prefer more bubbly and fizzy out of this "Australian" style, but it’s still a very drinkable brew. Overpriced for what it is, though.

Aug 27, 2007 Yeast aroma. Orange with a medium light white head good lacing. Sweet light malt taste. I don’t know whty they call this a sparkling ale because the carbonation is not that great.

Aug 27, 2007 22oz bottle. Poured a medium and slightly hazy amberish color with an averaged sized off white head. Aroams of general fruitiness, caramel, and earthy. Tastes of the same fruitiness, caramel, and lightly grassy. I was getting a saltiness in the finish. Hmmm, the best Austrailan Style Sparkling Ale I’ve ever had (can’t say that I’ve had any others though).
